Our group found that using a combination of these resources is the best method for learning. The Internet is good because it is usually very accurate and it does not require someone to teach but if the student does not understand it requires a peer to explain in more detail. Peers can also understand things incorrectly and try to teach it wrongly, which is not good for those getting taught. Internet sites can occasionally be incorrect but for the most part they are very accurate. Group discussion can also have social benefits and deficits. It can help you to learn about new peers but it can also lead to getting distracted.
